Blinded I am and so are youBy shedding tearsConfusion that separates us twoWe hold dearJust look into my eyesKiss our fears good bye

I'm reaching for your shadow drowning inThe kiss of dawnTouching the pain that you left me withAt the kiss of dawn

I'm tired of the games I'm playing with youWhen you're not hereDeath frees from the fear of dyingIt's true, have no fear

Let me look into your eyesAnd see death pass us by

Sleepwalking Past Hope

I hid the keys to unlock love's heartTo hold you in my sweetest pain and sufferingEverything's unfair in our lust and warRedemption beyond right and wrong

In our hearts love keeps sweet-talking to despairAnd goes on sleepwalking past hopeAll is lost in this warAnd all we can do is to wail and weep to the saddest songSleepwalking past hope

I unlit the light to embrace the darkTo be near but not to turn into you my darlingForever we're lost in our souls' stormReflections of each other's faults

I gave up long agoPainting love with crimson flowRan out of blood and hopeSo I paint you no more

My hell begins from the 10th and descends to the circleSix hundred threescore and sixAnd from there I crawl beneath Lucifer's claws just for one last kiss

Dead Lover's Lane

Despair has a faceAnd all these wounds remain unhealedBless the killed and enslavedOur own hearts are our loves willThrilled to start all over again

Crawl down dead lover's lane,The maze of memories stainedAnd it sucks the blood right out of my heart

Fear has a nameWritten on our hallowed groundWith their tearsThose words never savedTo fear your heart and our dreamsAre these beyond our grasp?

Crawl down dead lover's laneThe maze of memories stainedAnd it sucks the blood right out of my heart

Scream out love's name in vainErase the pain againAnd move yourself across the darkDead lover's lane

Crawl down dead lover's lane,The maze of memories stainedAnd it sucks the blood right out of my heart

Scream out love's name in vainErase the pain againAnd move yourself across the dark

And it sucks the blood right of my heart

Right out of my heart

Song Or Suicide

Sorrow rebuild me as I step out of the lightMisery strengthen me as I say my goodbyes

I heal my wounds with griefAnd dream of youAnd weep myself alive

Bleed Well

You had demons to kill within you screamingWith a gun loaded with guilt you opened their eyes

Love preys the living and praises the deadIn the heart of our hearts by death we were wed

Bleed well the soul you're about to sell for passion derangedKiss and tell, baby we're bleeding wellBleed well the heart you're about to fail for reasons insaneKill and tell, baby we're bleeding well''In hell

'No love lost under her will', I heard you weepingAnd on those words a church was built to keep the pain in

If death is the answer to love's mysteriesThen bleed on my darling to the sound of a dream

Should've known how hard it is to stop tearing each other apartSeparating souls entwined with all these labyrinthine lies

I am dead to you, a shadow doomedMy love, forever in the darkAnd of all untruths the truest is youToo close to my heart

This emptiness I've made my homeEmbracing memories of dreams long goneOne last caress from the corpse of love is all I wantUnderneath the cyanide sun

We've sailed the seas of grief on a raft built with our tearsLooking for a way to disappear for a moment from our deepest fears

I'll be drowning you in this river of gloomForever in my heart

The Cage

For years I've seen you fightingAgainst your heartLiving like you're dyingSo far from the sun

Waiting for a guardian angelTo lead you through the dangersThat lie ahead on your wayTowards tomorrows arms

Tears have turned from sweet to sour and hours to daysYou're hiding yourself awayFrom our cruel world's embraceAnd as your days turn to weeksYou'll cry yourself to sleepIn the cage

We all have our fears but yours areThe scariest of them allLift your head and let us tasteThe horror you adore

And it all starts to makes senseAll the blood wisely shedJust wait until the cure comes knocking on your door

Tears have turned from sweet to sour and hours to daysYou're hiding yourself awayFrom our cruel world's embraceAnd as your days turn to weeksYou'll cry yourself to sleepIn the cage you're locked in

Tears have turned from sweet to sour and hours to daysYou're hiding yourself awayFrom our cruel world's embraceAnd as your days turn to weeksYou'll cry yourself to sleepIn the cageAnd as your days turn to weeksYou'll cry yourself to sleepIn the cage you've locked yourself in

Venus (In Our Blood)

Her Heaven's a lie to those who threw away the keyHer God is alive and well when the higher believesAnd you can't bend the river of her dreamsOr understand the divine words she speaks

Venus denies your severing tides above dark watersYou can quench her thirst with the fear hiding away from the dayVenus denies you in your dark watersThe moon kissed the sun and now we hold her in our blood

Her savior was never on a cross pierced with nailsThirty pieces of silver never retraced her mistakeShe'll always be free from the arms of your sinsThat made you weak as your world started crumbling

Venus denies your severing tides above dark watersYou can quench her thirst with the fear hiding away from the dayVenus denies you in your dark watersThe moon kissed the sun and now we hold her in our blood

(She's in our blood)Venus denies your severing tides above dark watersYou can quench her thirst with the fear hiding away from the dayThe Venus denies you in your dark watersThe moon kissed the sun and now we hold her in our bloodIn our bloodIn our bloodIn our blood(She's in our blood)

In The Night-Side Of Eden

Divided we stand in the light of a frozen sunCursing the gods we have become

We steal the fire from a sacred heartAnd bleed the wine unholyWe fall in love with the serpent's songAnd fear nothing

In the nightside of EdenWe're born again deadForever we areForever we've beenForever we'll be crucified to a dreamIn the nightside of Eden

Deranged, we're tearing away the petals of desireLearning the mathematics of evil by heart

We deceive ourselves to start a warWithin the realm of sensesAnd descend to the circle number fourWhere we are nothing

In the nightside of EdenWe're born again deadForever we areForever we've beenForever we'll be crucified to a dreamIn the nightside of Eden

Play Dead

A moth into a butterflyAnd a lie into the sweetest truth I'm so afraid of life

I try to call your name But I'm silenced by the fear of dying in your heart once again

I see the seasons changingAnd in the heart of this autumn I fallWith the leaves from the trees

I play deadTo hide my heart'til the world gone dark fades away

I cry like God cries the rainAnd I'm just one step away from the end of today

I see the reasons changingAnd in the warmth of the past I crawlScorched by the shame

Shivers run through the spine Of hope as she criesThe poisoned tears of a life deniedIn the raven black nightHolding hands with...

Dark lightCome shine in her lost heart tonightAnd blind All fears that haunt her withYour smileDark light

In oblivion's garden Her body's on fireWrithing towards the angel defiledTo learn how to die In peace with her God

Dark lightCome shine in her lost heart tonightAnd blind All fears that haunt her withYour smileDark light

Dark lightCome shine in her lost heart tonightAnd blind All fears that haunt her withYour smile

Dark lightCome shine in her lost heart tonightAnd blind All fears that haunt her withYour smileDark light

Behind The Crimson Door

Covered the carcass of time with flowersTo send the scent of blame to the graveSet the darkest thoughts on fireAnd watched the ashes climb to Heaven's gates

We hide behind the crimson doorWhile the summer is killed by the fallAlive behind the crimson doorWhile the winter sings: "Your love will be the death of me" (End of me)"Your love will be the death of me"

Death served wine for loversBrought from the world where devils reignAnd intoxicated angels with sorrowThey witnessed in the eyes of their slaves

We hide behind the crimson doorWhile the summer is killed by the fallAlive behind the crimson doorWhile the winter sings: "Your love will be the death of me" (End of me)"Your love will be the death of me"

We hide behind the crimson doorWhile the summer is killed by the fallAlive behind the crimson doorWhile the winter sings: "Your love will be the death of me" (End of me)"Your love will be the death of me"

We hide behind the crimson doorWhile the summer is killed by the fallAlive behind the crimson doorWhile the winter sings: "Your love will be the death of me" (End of me)"Your love will be the death of me"

Memories, sharp as daggersPierce into the flesh of todaySuicide of love took away all that mattersAnd buried the remains in an unmarked grave in your heart

With the venomous kiss you gave meI'm killing loneliness (Killing loneliness)With the warmth of your arms you saved me,Oh, I'm killing loneliness with youI'm killing loneliness that turned my heart into a tombI'm killing loneliness

Nailed to the cross, togetherAs solitude begs us to stayDisappear in the lie foreverAnd denounce the power of death over our souls and secret words are said to start a war

With the venomous kiss you gave meI'm killing loneliness (Killing loneliness)With the warmth of your arms you saved me,Oh, I'm killing loneliness with youI'm killing loneliness that turned my heart into a tombI'm killing loneliness

Killing loneliness

With the venomous kiss you gave meI'm killing loneliness (Killing loneliness)With the warmth of your arms you saved me

Wings Of A Butterfly

Heaven ablaze in our eyes We're standing still in time The blood on our hands is the wine We offer as sacrifice

Come on and show them your love Rip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul - my loveRip out the wings of a butterflyFor you soul

This endless mercy mile We're crawling side by side With hell freezing over in our eyes Gods kneel before our crime

Come on and show them your love Rip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul - my loveRip out the wings of a butterflyFor you soul Rip out the wings of a butterflyDon't let goRip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul

Come on and show them your love Rip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul - my loveRip out the wings of a butterflyFor you soul

Rip out the wings of a butterflyDon't let goRip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul

Rip out the wings of a butterflyDon't let goRip out the wings of a butterflyFor your soul

And love said no

And love's light blueLed me to youThrough all the emptiness that had become my homeLove's lies cruelIntroduced me to youAnd at that moment I knew I was out of hope

Solitary Man

Melinda was mine 'til the timethat I found her holdin'Jim and lovin' him.

Then Sue came along,loved me strong,that's what I thought,but me and Sue,that died, too.

Don't know that I willbut until I can find me,a girl who'll stay andwon't play games behind me.

I'll be what I am,a solitary man,a solitary man,a solitary man.

I've had it to here - being where love's a small world,a part time thing, a paper ring.I know it's been donehavin' one girl who loves you,right or wrong,weak or strong.

Don't know that I willbut until I can find me,a girl who'll stay andwon't play games behind me.

No one can hurt you nowIn this haven safe and soundNo one can save you nowFrom this grace you are drowning in

Just hold your breath on your way down

This fortress of tearsI've built from my fears for youThis fortress won't fallI've built it strong for you

No one can free you nowFrom the chains around your heartDon't be afraid nowJust dive in this emptinessAnd hold your breath on your way down

Sweet Pandemonium

Today tomorrow seems so far away and the wait in vainSo safe in the blinding light of love unchained in yesterday’s grave

The truth that could set souls freeIs buried within sweet pandemoniumConcealed by disbeliefThe riddle stays veiled in sweet pandemonium

Afraid that everything remains unchanged in this fragile dreamAshamed of the shattered remains of promises made

Drained by the anger and griefFazed by the envy and greedThe secret cries for a releaseThe lucidity hidden deep in sweet pandemonium

The Path

There is no turning back from this unending path of mineSerpentine and black it stands before my eyesTo hell and back it will lead me once moreIt's all i have as i stumble in and out of grace

I walk through the gardens of dying lightAnd cross all the rivers deep and dark as the nightSearching for a reason why time would've passed us byWith every step i take the less i know myself

Every vow i break on my way towards your heartCountless times I've prayed for forgivenessBut gods just laugh at my faceAnd this path remains

Leading me into solitude's armsI see through the darkness my way back homeThe journey seems endless but i'll carry onThe shadows will rise and they will fall

And our night drowns in dawnAmidst all tears there's a smileThat all angels greet with an envious songOne look into stranger's eyes and i know where i belongAnd the path goes on...

Circle Of Fear

Heartache's knocking on her doorShadows dance outside her windowTears keep falling on the floorAs the world around her crumbles

If you want to save herFirst you have to save yourselfIf you want to free her from the hurtDon’t do it with your painIf you want to see her smile againDon’t show her you’re afraidBecause your circle of fear is the same

Love can be as cold as graveA one-way ticket to endless sorrowAn empire of gentle hateToday without tomorrow

It’s the circle of regretThe circle of hateThe circle of deathYour circle of fear is the same

I’ve seen it all beforeBeauty and splendour tornIt’s when heaven turns to black and hell to whiteRight so wrong and wrong so right

Feel it turning your heart into stoneFeel it piercing your courageous soulYou’re beyond now- redemptionAnd no one’s going to catch you when you fall

Oh I see you crawlYou can barely walkAnd arms wide openYou keep on begging for more

I’ve been there beforeKnocking on the same doorIt’s when hate turns to love and love to hateFaith to doubt and doubt to faith

Endless Dark

Softly the light shines in throughThe gates of grace on me and youDeceiving our restless heartsA flickering flame so serene Devours the night so we could seeThe fear we hold on to so strong

But I know where I belongAway from your godsThat heal all woundsAnd light this endless dark

Lonely the light shines on you Through the gates of fire entombedFeeding on your loveWeak is the blaze that kept me away From cruelty and tenderness embracedSaving my soul no more

And I know where I belongAway from your godsThat heal all wounds and light this endless darkThat shine on you and tame your burning heartThat bury my truth right into your armsThat worship the tomb of our forlorn love

Soul On Fire

There’s a flame that leads all souls astrayNo one’s safe from its tender touch of painAnd everyday it’s looking for new slavesTo celebrate the beauty of the grave

We are like the living deadSacrificing all we haveFor a frozen heart and a soul on fireWe are like the living deadCraving for deliveranceWith a frozen heart and a soul on fire

Again we’re falling for disgraceAnd hate will shelter us from the rainWe are enslaved by the sacred heart of shameAnd gently raped by the light of day

Addicted to our divine despairThe venom of the cross we bearThe guilt will follow us to death

Buried Alive By Love

Again the burden of losing rests upon my shouldersAnd its weight seems unbearable‘Your tomb is where your heart is’, I should’ve told herBut within me hid a secret so terrible

They say to cry is to know that you’re aliveBut my river of tears has run dryI never wanted to fool you-noA cold heart is a dead heartAnd it feels like I’ve been buried alive by love

If I should die before I wakePray no one my soul to takeAnd if I wake before I dieRescue me with your smile

The kiss of vanity blessed me with a spiritual murderAnd fed the gods of war insatiable‘Your home is where the dark is’, I should’ve told herAnd embraced the fire indestructible

To die is to know that you’re aliveAnd my river of blood won’t run dryI never wanted to lose you-noBut a cold heart is a dead heartAnd it feels like I’ve been buried alive by love

A cold heart is a dead heartAnd a deserted soul is goneA cold heart is a dead heartAnd it feels like I’ve been buried alive by love

The Sacrament

I hear you breathe so far from hereI feel your touch so close and real

And I know my church is not of silver and goldIts glory lies beyond judgment of soulsThe commandments are of consolation and warmth

You know our sacred dream won’t failThe sanctuary tender and so frailThe sacrament of loveThe sacrament of warmth is trueThe sacrament is you

I hear you weep so far from hereI taste your tears like you’re next to me

And I know my weak prayers are not enough to healThe ancient wounds so deep and so dearThe revelation is of hatred and fear

The Funeral of Hearts

She was the sun shining upon the tomb of your hopes and dreams so frailHe was the moon painting you with its glow so vulnerable and pale

Love's the funeral of heartsAnd an ode for crueltyWhen angels cry bloodOn flowers of evil in bloom

The funeral of heartsAnd a plea for mercyWhen love is a gunSeparating me from you

She was the wind carrying in all the troubles and fears you’ve for years tried to forgetHe was the fire, restless and wild and you were like a moth to that flame

The heretic seal beyond divineA prayer to a god who’s deaf and blindThree little words and a question:Why?
